Picture perfect. - Allie our guide did an awesome job showing us all the garden has to offer in a personable way. She answered every question and gave us ideas for other authentic experiences while in the greater Phoenix area.

A most enjoyable evening - Our tour guide, Allie was a pleasure. We spent about 2 hours walking through the Botanical Gardens. Allie pointed out and described so much about the various cacti and other trees and shrubs that we never would have noticed on our own. Yet, she kept it light and fun. She brings her own collection of visual aids to enhance the experience. From the moment you start the tour you can see how enthusiastic and knowledgeable Allie is. Allie pointed out some photo spots and took terrific shots of us. Although the tour includes dinner, the meal was wraps, bowls or salads. The food was tasty but don’t expect a full course meal. We enjoyed our tour and would definitely recommend it.

Amazing tour with Allie - Allie was amazing. This was our first time visiting Arizona and just a few hours with Allie, we have more knowledge of the desert than we ever thought possible. This tour was amazing. Allie was so knowledgeable and sweet. She made this tour amazing. She took pics along the way, and also gave us insider knowledge of what to see during our stay. Definitely recommend, a must do.

Great Sonoran Desert experience - This was such a fun and educational experience. Allie was so nice and knowledgeable about the wildlife as well as the cactus population. She was right on time and allowed ample time to walk and meander through the different exhibits. Would recommend absolutely if you are visiting the area.

Sunset tour of the Sonoran Desert - Allie was very friendly and very informative! We learned a lot regarding the vegetation in the desert. She willingly offered to take scenic group pictures of us. Enjoyed her providing us with chairs, snacks and drinks while watching the sunset.

Beautiful views and super great guide! - Allie was a fabulous tour guide! We were the only ones on the tour and she created a personalized experience for us with tons of information on the area, the plants and animals, and the history. She took great pictures of my mom and I and made sure we were safe, including adjusting the pace and path to make sure my mom was comfortable. So much fun and beautiful space. Plus Allie gave us a bunch of other recommendations for other sites. And she communicated often and clearly leading up to our meet up.
